Wicked Little Letters
2024, 100 min, R
When a deeply conservative resident (Olivia Colman) of a British seaside community is the primary recipient of anonymous profane letters, suspicion immediately falls upon her neighbor—a rowdy Irish immigrant (Jessie Buckley). Believing something is amiss, several of the town’s women decide to investigate, discovering the accused may not be the culprit. A true scandal that rocked 1920s England is the basis of this funny poison pen comedy/mystery, generously peppered with spirited language delivered with a slapstick sensibility.
